Funny enough, on Tuesday I went out and did my normal quickie including Rhiwbina Hill (North Cardiff), and then down Heol Fforest (a dark road that winds through Fforest Fawr where mountain bikers and doggers compete for the woods.
As soon as I started the descent on the road, it was clear that my ‘be seen’ road bike light was not enough to allow me to see, well… anything. Then, of course, the fact that the trees lining the road have been host to a number of tragic deaths, meant that I did the run with the hairs standing up on the back of my neck.
I’d do it again, though. Just with a brighter light. 🙂
